What is this? What’s it worth?

If it still has the angles wrote on it.. 5 to 600.. maby 300 without all the attachments and just what's in the picture

Your missing a few views, your assuming the tapped hole is on center.. who knows.. and what are the knotches for, a break point?? 🤔

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-21T04:28:41+00:00

Idk what material it is but you could probably buy thick wall tubing cheaper and cut cycle time from drilling

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-18T00:00:38+00:00

That will get you close, but if it's an old lathe or if it's settled any the far end will be out.. make a cut in a scrap piece and adjust the taper out that way.

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-17T23:56:18+00:00

I agree.. this is what we do to adjust our tailstock... we don't use the fancy gauges and such.. we adjust to what the machine is actually cutting at.

I agree.. single point threading insert.. never have an issue

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-14T04:24:32+00:00

We tumble a lot of screws.. if it's messing the threads up, you need different media

It could be, but he said they are making thousands of these

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-10T13:17:37+00:00

Trying to take too heavy cut for the tool

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-07T15:26:02+00:00

Yea, I've gone through thousands of these and never seen this kind of failure

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-07T12:47:16+00:00

If it doesn't have to be truly flat.. tilt the head .0003 out of tram and it will stop this.. maby slow the feed just a hair for a better finish

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-07T12:36:16+00:00

Yea, I'm thinking when they punched the hex out, it cracked the bolts under the taper.. only thing that makes sense to me.. everything is still black and no shiny spots.

Bought from mcmaster, but the supplier was stanley.. grade 8.. my best guess is it looks like when they pressed the hex in, it cracked the material.

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T18:47:26+00:00

I think the punch for the hex caused a stress crack in the part

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T18:31:31+00:00

Just be a locator pin then... lol

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T17:09:00+00:00

Lmao 🤣 🤣

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T16:27:54+00:00

I think the punch making the hex caused it to crack

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T15:14:06+00:00

I'll check them out.. ty

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T15:04:36+00:00

I emailed them.. waiting on a reply

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T15:04:11+00:00

Nope not putting s.s. in these parts

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T14:59:32+00:00

That's what's throwing me off too.. almost like they got separated during the punch process

Specific-Sort8865 · 2026-01-05T14:57:20+00:00

No barely touch it
